club house

[def]

just sitting looking at more rain and wondering how many of you still go to the club for a pint even with the course shut.

Not me. My local pub is about 150 yards from my front door so that is where I head for when it is raining.

18 mile drive and once I start I don't wanna stop so, I'd better not.

I know the feling andy, impossible to just go out and have a couple, I waste so much cash on cabs after abandoning the car at the pub!

I've been earlier today. The course was closed but I went to pay my fees for the year. Had a lovely bacon sandwich and coffee whilst I was there. YUM!!!

Played this morning at Crieff, perfect weather course was in good nick considering all the rain we have had lately.
I don't use clubhouse as often as I should as it's 17 miles from home.

Nice day here in Edinburgh, played a winter fourball tie today with my brother-in-law, 18 winter greens after all the snow/rain etc of the last fortnight. Had to give away a good number of shots to the high marker. Good to get out though, if it doesn't get too wet this week, course should be quite good fro next weekend.

Had a wee drink in the bar after our match, as you do. Nice to sit and watch those behind finish their games on a good bright afternoon.

Was nice, DCB. 3 of us played at the Glen, down in North Berwick in lovely conditions. But I was driving so couldn't have a beer in their lovely new clubhouse. Where's a minibus and a free bar when you need it?

How was the breeze down there? It was a wee bit blowy up here late morning. just enough to make you think about your shots if you know what I mean.

What was the club of choice on the wee par three today at the Glen? Tide in or out?

 

[John_Findlay]

There was the usual prevailing breeze, DCB, against coming in. Fun wee hole that 13th. Usually a wedge, it was a knock down 6 iron today, so enough to keep us all honest. Tide in, I think. Great to get back on the saddle, though. My pal was desperate to try out his new Benross irons so I wasn't gonna get off the hook, no matter the weather.

Since this is the "Club House " Thread, what did you think of their (the Glens) new clubhouse? Not played there since it was opened but it looks a vast improvement on the old "quaint" clubhouse.

I played my first round at my new club today. first hole,7th hole(shotgun start) par five, spanked my teeshot 300+, hit a 5iron on in 2, lipped out the eagle put then tapped in a birdie.....the rest was a disaster(apart from a par on the 1st) Nevermind tho I had a laugh!

 

[John_Findlay]

Yes. I was digressing, wasn't I?

The new clubhouse is a beauty. Great changing rooms, nice lounge bar, another bar with pool table, balconies overlooking the sea where the smokers can congregate. All very pleasant and friendly.

Have you had a look at this?

Not me. I only use the clubhouse when I am playing or practicing. Not for any particular adversion other than a) I'm not allowed to drink anymore and b) my local is 10 minutes away and the locals are a good bunch
